For just $949, down from its list price of $1648.01, this deal sits well below the camera's recent pricing trends. The 30-day average on this body hovers around $1415.34, and the 90-day average is $1452.38, so the current $949 price cuts roughly $460 to $500 off what it has typically sold for in recent months.

What You're Getting

The EOS R8 is Canon's lightest full-frame RF Mount mirrorless body, pairing a 24.2-megapixel CMOS sensor with the DIGIC X Image Processor. It shoots uncropped 4K video at up to 60 fps oversampled from 6K, and supports Full HD high-frame-rate recording up to 180 fps plus Canon Log 3 and HDR PQ. The Dual Pixel CMOS AF II system covers 100% of the frame with 1,053 AF zones and uses deep learning to track people, animals, vehicles, aircraft, trains, and horses. A 0.39-inch OLED EVF with up to 120 fps refresh rate and a 3.0-inch vari-angle LCD touchscreen round out the viewfinder setup.

UVC/UAC support means it can function as a webcam for streaming without extra hardware.

Who This Is For

Best for: photographers and content creators who want full-frame image quality in a compact body without spending $1,500 or more. This is a strong option for vloggers who need 4K 60p, a flip-out screen, and lightweight portability.

Anyone who shoots hybrid stills and video on a budget should take a hard look. If you already own a high-end Canon R-series body. This is not a replacement, but it works well as a travel or backup camera.

A $699.01 discount on a sub-$1,000 full-frame camera with Canon's latest autofocus and 4K 60p video is hard to argue with. If you need a full-frame body right now. This is the price to buy at.
